Fitzpatrick reports Chasco Fiesta events
What the county recorded
This item is not from the published agenda
It is a stretch of the recording that this archive identified as a separate matter — a call to order, a recess, or something taken up that the agenda does not list. There is no official title, no staff recommendation and no disposition, because the county never recorded one. Everything below is inferred.

Thank you. I would just like to mention of course we had the Chasco Coronation Ball and all of the events that surrounded in downtown surrounded Chasco Fiesta in downtown New Port Richey. It was a ten day event. There's usually about sixty thousand people. I will get an update on how many people attended this year and how many beds and heads that we had. So I'm very excited to announce it was a one hundred years of the Chasco Fiesta. They had the ball, they had the street parade, the boat parade, they
had multiple concerts throughout the venue and the carnival over off Gulf Drive. So I'll keep it.
I I was gonna be in the boat parade because of family illness I had to pull out, but did that go off? Because it was pouring.
It was a perfectly timed event. They started about a half hour early at twelve thirty. The boats moved pretty quickly through the parade and we got back by one thirty. I know we undecorated the par float, got into the vehicle, and then it was torrential downpour. Wow. So they made perfect timing.
I love that parade. That boat parade is so fun.
I've been attending them since So it's so for the past twenty years, thirty years.
